Gemma Collins reveals she is sent daily death threats by stalker

She has armed herself with bodyguards

Gemma Collins has revealed she’s been hounded by a female stalker who is sending her daily death threats.

The TOWIE star, 37, revealed she’s had a string of terrifying letters sent to her clothing boutique in Brentwood, Essex.

Gemma told The Sun that her stalker even turned up at some of her personal appearances, leaving Gemma with no choice but to stop any further appearances.

She said: “Just recently I’ve got someone sending death threats to my shop every day, it’s a Birmingham postcode stamp so I think they live in Birmingham.”

The star said she’s had to protect herself by hiring bodyguards but despite the extra protection, she has still had to cancel her meet and greets with her fans.

She told the publication: “I’ve got security, I have close protection. Personal appearances – I had to stop them because the stalker kept turning up at them.”

“So it’s really hard when they go, ‘Gemma Collins has cancelled the nightclub appearance last minute,'” she added. “It’s because we found out the stalker was there.”

Despite her stalker, Gemma insists she’s still “looking forward to the summer” with her boyfriend James “Arg” Argent.

And she’s not letting it affect her career either, as she recently announced she has her own reality show in the works.

She revealed the news on Instagram, where she shared a quote that read: “Ten years from now I would like to see myself successful as a brand, like Jessica Simpson, with babies running around and a beautiful husband and my own reality show.”

Alongside the quote, Gemma wrote: “I’m so humbled and so so grateful to finally fulfil my dream I had when I first started out.

“Today is the day where I can announce I am filming for my own reality show. DREAMS do come TRUE.”

Gemma has previously said she would love to have a reality show to show people “the real life of Gemma Collins”.

She told The Sun: “I would love the Gemma Collins show. There are a few offers on the table but we’ll just have to wait and see. I would love my own show.”

“I’d like to show people things like the real life of Gemma Collins,” she added. “It’d be fabulous, it’d be glitter and feathers everywhere.”

Meanwhile, it’s not just a reality show that Gemma has been hoping for.

She’s also expressed her desire to start a family with her beau Arg and recently hinted that they may start trying for a baby after the summer.

She told New magazine: “I think we will give it the summer first. I wouldn’t want to be pregnant in the summer with the fluid retention on my feet.”
